LANDSCAPE RESOURCES, DID YOU KNOW?
Being educated about your landscape helps in planning for the care of your yard
Check out some of our helpful tips & tricks to help keeping your landscape looking beautiful .
Your trees and shrubs represent a large investment that will keep adding value to your property as long as they’re kept in good shape.
Start Planning Now for Spectacular Spring Bulbs
As long as they’re planned and planted correctly, spring bulbs will provide a beautiful color show next year with a minimum of maintenance requirements. In general, the planting window for spring bulbs is from mid-September to mid-October, which gives the bulbs enough time to grow roots before the ground freezes.
Reseed and Repair Damaged Turf
Almost every lawn can use a little fixing up or repairing, and the end of summer (or early fall) is just about the best time to do it.
When hot weather arrives for the summer it puts your lawn on the defensive. Lawns have several enemies that seek to prevent you from having that beautiful green carpet of turf that you're looking for. Fungal disease is an enemy that your lawn will most likely encounter in some form or fashion. While disease damage can be ugly, it's no reason to panic.
An automatic irrigation system is a valuable asset when caring for your lawn and landscape. Water conservation is more important than ever, and these systems can save a lot when compared to traditional hoses and sprinklers.
There are parts of your landscape that you're glad to welcome back year after year. Watching trees gradually mature or your favorite shrubs burst to life every year is a great part of spring.
Warm spring breezes, longer days, and blossoming gardens and trees are all welcome signs of spring and the summer to come. Flowers and turfgrass are not the only plants that look forward to warmer weather. Crabgrass and broadleaf weeds are invaders that love spring as well and, if left to their own devices, will take over your entire lawn.
